Jodie Foster lands double mention for TV work for DGA Awards

By:
WENN.com
Jan 14, 2015

Actress Jodie Foster has scored her first two nominations for the Directors Guild of America (DGA) Awards after receiving recognition for her work behind the camera on House Of Cards and Orange Is The New Black. The Silence of the Lambs star directed a House of Cards episode, titled Chapter 22, last year (14), while she also took charge of the Thirsty Bird instalment for the female prison show's latest season.
Now the two shows have earned Foster nods in both the drama and comedy categories at the upcoming DGA Awards, making her the only nominee this year to garner attention two separate fields.
In the shortlist for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Dramatic Series, Foster will face competition from True Detective's Cary Joji Fukunaga, Game of Thrones' Alex Graves, and Dan Attias and Lesli Linka Glatter, who both scored mentions for separate Homeland episodes.
Meanwhile, the Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Comedy Series also features Gail Mancuso (Modern Family), Louis C.K. (Louie), Mike Judge (Silicon Valley) and Transparent's Jill Soloway, who picked up a Golden Globe Award for Best TV Series, Comedy or Musical on Sunday (11Jan15).
The movies for television and miniseries category will be a fight between Ryan Murphy (The Normal Heart), Lisa Cholodenko (Olive Kitteridge), Rob Ashford (Peter Pan Live!), Uli Edel (Houdini) and Michael Wilson (The Trip to Bountiful), and Laura Poitras (Citizenfour) and Dan Krauss (The Kill Team) are among those up for the Documentary prize.
The TV and documentary nominees were announced on Wednesday (14Jan15), a day after the directors of Birdman, Boyhood, The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Imitation Game and American Sniper were unveiled as the contenders for the DGA's Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Feature Film honour.
The winners will be revealed at a ceremony in Los Angeles on 7 February (15). Glee star Jane Lynch will host for the second consecutive year.

The Planet of the Apes franchise has a deep lineage of interesting writers penning different chapters about our future simian overlords. With the latest installment of the franchise, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes hitting theaters this Friday, we've decided to put the spotlight on the scribes that have brought the ape-ocalypse to life throughout the years.
Rod SterlingFilm: Planet of the ApesNotable Works: The Twilight ZoneRod Sterling was the creator of the legendary sci-fi anthology TV series The Twilight Zone, whose influences continue to touch every inch of modern sci-fi storytelling. Besides The Twilight Zone, Sterling has also written a number of films, including thrillers like The Yellow Canary and Seven Days in March. He also created another anthology series, Night Gallery, which featured stories focusing on horror, supernatural, and macabre elements.
Michael WilsonFilm: Planet of the ApesNotable Works: Lawrence of Arabia, It's a Wonderful Life, The Bridge on the River KwaiBesides co-writing the first entry of the Planet of the Apes franchise, Michael Wilson wrote an astounding number of cinematic classics, including Lawrence of Arabia, It's a Wonderful Life, and The Bridge on the River Kwai. If Wilson's credits weren't interesting enough, the writer was blacklisted from the Hollywood studio system after being accused of being a communist. During this time, he wrote a number of films overseas. One of which was Salt of the Earth, a film written, produced, and directed by filmmakers blacklisted by Hollywood during the McCarthy era.
Paul DehnFilms: Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Escape from the Planet of the Apes, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, Battle for the Planet of the ApesNotable Works: Goldfinger, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, Murder on the Orient ExpressPaul Dehn is the most prolific screenwriter of the franchise, penning scripts for four out of the five original films in the series. Outside of the Planet of the Apes franchise, Dehn has written several spy thrillers including the James Bond film Goldfinger and a film adaptation of John le Carre's The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. He also wrote the screenplay for Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express.
John William Corrington and Joyce Hooper CorringtonFilm: Battle for the Planet of the ApesNotable Works: The Omega Man, Boxcar Bertha, General HospitalThis married couple and screenwriting duo has lent its talents to five films over the years. Besides Battle for the Planet of the Apes, they also wrote the screenplay for Omega Man, another apocalyptic film starring Charlton Heston in the lead role, and Martin Scorsese's Boxcar Bertha. The writing team is also known for their work on soap operas, having written for long-running soap staples like General Hospital and One Life to Live.
Lawrence Konner and Mark RosenthallFilm: Planet of the Apes (2001)Notable Works: Mona Lisa Smile, The Sorcerer ApprenticeLawrence Konner and Mark Rosenthall have worked together on a diverse number of projects including Mona Lisa Smile, Star Trek VI, and The Sorcerer Apprentice. They also, funnily enough, penned the script for Mighty Joe Young, another film about primates, but one with far fewer apocalyptic overtones. Lawrence Konner has also written for the HBO series Boardwalk Empire though without his writing partner.
William Broyles Jr.Film: Planet of the Apes (2001)Notable Works: Entrapment, Apollo 13, The Polar Express, Cast AwayWilliam Broyles Jr. is a bona fide A-list Hollywood screenwriter with numerous films under his belt including Jarhead, Unfaithful, The Polar Express, and Cast Away. His script for for Apollo 13 was nominated for an Academy Award for best adapted screenplay.
Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver Film: Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Planet of the ApesNotable Works: Avatar 3, Jurassic WorldMarried screenwriters Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver had a handful of films under their belt, but the duo really broke out with their script for 2011's Rise of the Planet of the Apes, which revitalized the franchise and earned them a Saturn Award nomination for writing. Ever since, the pair have become a hot commodity for sci-fi blockbusters. Jaffa and Silver were hired to write the upcoming tent-pole films Jurassic World and Avatar 3.

Legions of Angela Chase fans are about to have a new hero to worship. Winnie Holzman, the creator of the cult hit My S0-Called Life, will be the showrunner for the upcoming Showtime series Roadies, the pilot of which was written and directed by Cameron Crowe. In a plot reminiscent of Crowe's film Almost Famous, the ensemble comedy will take place on a rock tour across the United States, and will focus on the people who work behind the scenes. A pilot is currently in development, and according to NikkiFinke.com, if the network decides to move forward with Roadies, Holzman will take over starting with the second episode. It might not be a My So-Called Life reunion, but for fans of the show, it's still worth getting excited over.
Though it only lasted one season, My So-Called Life has become a cult hit thanks to its honest, realistic protrayal of teenagers and the issues they deal with, and Angela Chase, Rayanne Graff, Rickie Vasquez and Jordan Catalano have turned into cultural touchstones. Since its cancellation, fans have been looking for another show that will fill the void left by the loss of their favorite characters and another teen TV show that isn't too preachy or unrealistic. And while it's been too long since the time we spent at Liberty High School for a renunion or reboot, it seems like Roadies might be just what fans need to move on.
In subject, Roadies is nothing like My So-Called Life; where one was about regular students in a normal high school, the other will be set on a rock tour, which is perhaps the most glamourous and intriguing location imaginable. However, Roadies isn't about the celebrities on stage. It's about the regular people who do the hard work of setting up and tearing down equipment and keeping the show running smoothly. They have the least glamorous job on the tour, but they're the most in touch with reality. By focusing the show on the roadies, Holzman will be able to keep things grounded and authentic in much the same way that she was able to make Angela feel like a real person you might have hung out with.
ABC
Exploring that realism is part of the reason why it makes sense to air Roadies on a channel like Showtime, which gives the writers more freedom with what they can include. Though showbusiness is glamorous and fun, it has a dark side, and it wouldn't be realistic for the show to leave those aspects out. On Showtime, Holzman and the writers would be able to showcase some of the seedier things that happen on a rock tour, without having to worry about network standards and censors. But while many shows would glmaorize the darker elements of the rock and roll lifestyle, Holzman will likely find the right balance in order to keep things grounded and avoid showcasing twisted or disturbing things just for the sake of shock value. It might sound like an impossible feat, but if anyone will be able to keep a show about rock stars grounded, it will likely be Holzman. Plus, thanks to her work on Broadway with the hit show Wicked, she'll also be able to ensure that the show has enough flash and spectacle, without letting it overwhelm the characters at its heart.
Moving to a more mature channel is also fitting for a follow-up show to My So-Called Life. Just as the fans of My So-Called Life have grown up and now have more adutl conflicts and concerns, so does Holzman's show. Though we're sure that Roadies will deal with the usual television issues of identity, friendship and romance, the content of the show will likely be a lot more mature, and will probably have larger consequences than many of the issues that My So-Called Life dealt with. Of course, it's thanks to that show's darker, more dramatic storylines that we can have confidence in Holzman's handling of whatever conficlts arise on Roadies, as well as her talent at giving the stories the right amount of depth and emotional weight.
My So-Called Life dealt with a lot of the same issues that Crowe handles in Almost Famous: struggling to figure out who you are, breaking away from the preconceptions that people held about you, learning that the people you idolize and worship might not be worth your attention, how to car for a friend who is struggling, navigating complicated relationships and love triangles of every permutation. That's why Holzman is the perfect choice for Roadies, which seems as if it will focus on a lot of the same elements as Almost Famous. Her expereince with those themes will help Roadies hit the right emotional beats and make sure that it stays true to its message, and maybe even help it become another classic. Besides, William and Angela, Russell and Jordan and Penny Lane and Rayanne already have plenty in common, so Holzman should have no problem handling whatever new characters Crowe comes up with.
It might not be the same as My So-Called Life, but Roadies has the potential to be just as entertaining, relatable, and long-lastig thanks to Holzman's involvement. Sure, Crowe is the bigger name, but when it comes to writing shows with heart and autheticity, there's nobody we'd trust more than her.

Antipodean model and TV star Nikki Phillips has married musician Dane Rumble on the Indonesian island of Bali, according to reports. The blonde beauty is said to have tied the knot with New Zealand singer Rumble in an intimate ceremony on Sunday (25May14), in front of a handful of their friends and family.
The bride's best pals, former Hi-5 star Casey Burgess and TV presenter Laura Csortan, fuelled the wedding speculation by sharing snaps from their trip to Bali with fans on Instagram.com.
Phillips has also been posting images of the vacation, although she has yet to address reports suggesting she is a newlywed.
The model became engaged to Rumble in June (13) after two years of dating.
It was a busy weekend for celebrity weddings - Kim Kardashian and Kanye West tied the knot in Italy on Saturday (24May14), while actresses Casey Wilson and Lisa Edelstein exchanged vows with their new husbands in California, and Patrick Swayze's widow Lisa Niemi wed jeweller Albert DePrisco in Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday.

ABC/HBO
Slowly but surely, television is opening up the long overdue idea of a woman in the White House. Veep stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer, a former presidential hopeful who takes the thankless job of VP. She tries for change but often gets mired in bureaucracy and ignored by the POTUS. Scandal follows Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington), a D.C. fixer with a very close relationship with the president. Though different genres, both have women as major players in politics and tend to favor outrageous situations in our nation’s capital. So which series presents the most formidable women and which has the most outlandish shenanigans?
Most Powerful
Veep has quite a few women in power. Selina Meyer is Vice President, and some of the most important people in her office are her Chief of Staff Amy (Anna Chlumsky) and her personal assistant, Sue Wilson (Sufe Bradshaw). Part of the joke of Veep is that Selina is so inutile. She is unable to make as much headway in politics as she’d like because but she gets sidelined by lobbyists or undone by the POTUS. However, there are enough high profile women in Washington that she often liaises with Senators and Representatives… including Kate Burton, who incidentally plays the Vice President over on Scandal.
In the Scandal universe, Olivia Pope is a major power player in D.C. She lives outside the law, often outright breaking it to achieve her ends. She is instrumental in presidential elections. There are plenty of powerful women on the show as well. Two members of Olivia’s team are women and the First Lady Mellie Grant (Bellamy Young) is a shrewd politician. There even is a viable potential presidential candidate in Josie Marcus (Lisa Kudrow). However, Olivia’s Achilles’ heel is her love for the president. As kick-ass as Olivia and the women on the show can be, their efforts are often undone by sex, love, or other personal matters. The series does deserve some bonus points because Shonda Rhimes’ power does reverberate through the series, but her sphere of influence is Hollywood, not D.C.
Ruling: Veep. In the court of public opinion, Selina’s reputation is still pretty decent. All the female characters are unwaveringly ambitious and often sacrifice the personal for the professional.
Outrageousness
Both series present a slightly exaggerated view of D.C. for the sake of entertainment. Veep opts for the realistic with comedic reactions. Selina will occasionally fly off the handle or get her foot in her mouth. On one occasion, she sneaks into the Oval Office to confront the POTUS and accidentally gets lipstick stuck in the presidential seal on the office rug. She is often the last to find out about major policy changes because she has a non-existent relationship with the POTUS. Personally, she’s divorced and her sex life is often met with equally wild mishaps. But the bulk of the outrageousness comes from keeping her issues out of the public eye and staying in good standing.
Scandal is not afraid to be downright insane. Not only is Olivia carrying on an off-again/on-again relationship with the president but she’ll move mountains to keep it a secret. The series has secret government agents, murders, kidnappings, and a White House Chief-of-Staff (Jeff Perry) who is willing to do anything for the president and his political career.
Ruling: Scandal. It takes drama to the extreme. Not only does it focus on some of the worst possible scenarios for D.C. but everyone is chock full of secrets.
Both series are making great headway in showcasing women as important players in government. It helps that the shows use humor and scandalous soap operatic drama to excite the masses for a female president.

DreamWorks
For the bulk of every Rocky and Bullwinkle episode, moose and squirrel would engage in high concept escapades that satirized geopolitics, contemporary cinema, and the very fabrics of the human condition. With all of that to work with, there's no excuse for why the pair and their Soviet nemeses haven't gotten a decent movie adaptation. But the ingenious Mr. Peabody and his faithful boy Sherman are another story, intercut between Rocky and Bullwinkle segments to teach kids brief history lessons and toss in a nearly lethal dose of puns. Their stories and relationship were much simpler, which means that bringing their shtick to the big screen would entail a lot more invention — always risky when you're dealing with precious material.
For the most part, Mr. Peabody &amp; Sherman handles the regeneration of its heroes aptly, allowing for emotionally substance in their unique father-son relationship and all the difficulties inherent therein. The story is no subtle metaphor for the difficulties surrounding gay adoption, with society decreeing that a dog, no matter how hyper-intelligent, cannot be a suitable father. The central plot has Peabody hosting a party for a disapproving child services agent and the parents of a young girl with whom 7-year-old Sherman had a schoolyard spat, all in order to prove himself a suitable dad. Of course, the WABAC comes into play when the tots take it for a spin, forcing Peabody to rush to their rescue.
Getting down to personals, we also see the left brain-heavy Peabody struggle with being father Sherman deserves. The bulk of the emotional marks are hit as we learn just how much Peabody cares for Sherman, and just how hard it has been to accept that his only family is growing up and changing.
DreamWorks
But more successful than the new is the film's handling of the old — the material that Peabody and Sherman purists will adore. They travel back in time via the WABAC Machine to Ancient Egypt, the Renaissance, and the Trojan War, and 18th Century France, explaining the cultural backdrop and historical significance of the settings and characters they happen upon, all with that irreverent (but no longer racist) flare that the old cartoons enjoyed. And oh... the puns.
Mr. Peabody &amp; Sherman is a f**king treasure trove of some of the most amazingly bad puns in recent cinema. This effort alone will leave you in awe.
The film does unravel in its final act, bringing the science-fiction of time travel a little too close to the forefront and dropping the ball on a good deal of its emotional groundwork. What seemed to be substantial building blocks do not pay off in the way we might, as scholars of animated family cinema, have anticipated, leaving the movie with an unfinished feeling.
But all in all, it's a bright, compassionate, reasonably educational, and occasionally funny if not altogether worthy tribute to an old favorite. And since we don't have our own WABAC machine to return to a time of regularly scheduled Peabody and Sherman cartoons, this will do okay for now.
If nothing else, it's worth your time for the puns.
3/5

It seems as though the inevitable backlash has begun to take reign over Justin Bieber's career. The brothel-hopping, egg-throwing, and ruckus-causing may not have done it, but drag racing drunk and high in the streets of Miami? Time to get your life, Justin. By now, we've all seen his Colgate-approved mugshot and not surprisingly, everyone and their dog had an opinion about it and Bieber's situation on social media. Beyonce's surprise album gave Twitter a bona fide shakeup, with about 5,300 tweets being posted per minute, but Bieber's arrest surpassed that with a whopping 6,100 tweets per minute. Bieber's DUI has ended up dominating social media, with memes, gifs, and hash tags making light of his arrest - funnily enough, while "#deportBieber" was trending in America, "#keepBieber" was trending in Canada. As expected, many celebrities have also taken to their Twitter to share their thoughts on Bieber's situation, because why not? Justin may be the latest star who may be facing the muzak of celebrity justice, but if there's one place you don't want to be indicted, it's before the judge, jury, and executioners of Twitter.

Lady Gaga has earned herself a place in France's famous Louvre museum as part of an art piece by Robert Wilson. The pop superstar has collaborated with a number of famous artists to mark the release of her latest album ARTPOP this month (Nov13), including Jeff Koons who made a sculpture of the singer to feature on the record's cover.
She also worked with theatre director/artist Wilson and their collaboration has gone on show in the legendary Paris museum as part of his Living Rooms exhibition there.
Gaga recreated Jacques-Louis David's famous painting The Death of Marat as part of the piece, while she was also filmed hanging upside down naked and tied up in rope for a performance art video.
The singer posted a picture of herself suspended from the ceiling during the shoot on her Littlemonsters.com website, revealing she endured 45 minutes of incredible discomfort to make the film.
She writes, "I did this piece (in) London. Bob Wilson filmed it. I hung upside down for 45 minutes in this position. This was the first piece he allowed me to do myself. I'm discovering my passion in performance art is seance. Allowing old souls to pass through me. While I suffer for their art, and leave mine and my vanity behind. This is how I can be vehicle for my monsters all over the world."
Gaga also reveals the meaning behind her decision to recreate famous works of art like The Death of Marat, adding, "It will take a while for the concept of ARTPOP to catch on... Instead of the painter painting 'me,' (like (Andy) Warhol printing Marilyn (Monroe)) I am painting (performing) the painting. I am not on the canvas I am part of it. This is ARTPOP."
She also boasted of her place in the Louvre in a post on her Twitter.com page, writing, "I know my artiness + musical goals may seem lofty, but there is a pop star in the Louvre, right next to the Mona Lisa."

When we last left our heroes, they had conquered all opponents in the 74th Annual Hunger Games, returned home to their newly refurbished living quarters in District 12, and fallen haplessly to the cannibalism of PTSD. And now we're back! Hitching our wagons once again to laconic Katniss Everdeen and her sweet-natured, just-for-the-camera boyfriend Peeta Mellark as they gear up for a second go at the Capitol's killing fields.
But hold your horses — there's a good hour and a half before we step back into the arena. However, the time spent with Katniss and Peeta before the announcement that they'll be competing again for the ceremonial Quarter Quell does not drag. In fact, it's got some of the film franchise's most interesting commentary about celebrity, reality television, and the media so far, well outweighing the merit of The Hunger Games' satire on the subject matter by having Katniss struggle with her responsibilities as Panem's idol. Does she abide by the command of status quo, delighting in the public's applause for her and keeping them complacently saturated with her smiles and curtsies? Or does Katniss hold three fingers high in opposition to the machine into which she has been thrown? It's a quarrel that the real Jennifer Lawrence would handle with a castigation of the media and a joke about sandwiches, or something... but her stakes are, admittedly, much lower. Harvey Weinstein isn't threatening to kill her secret boyfriend.
Through this chapter, Katniss also grapples with a more personal warfare: her devotion to Gale (despite her inability to commit to the idea of love) and her family, her complicated, moralistic affection for Peeta, her remorse over losing Rue, and her agonizing desire to flee the eye of the public and the Capitol. Oftentimes, Katniss' depression and guilty conscience transcends the bounds of sappy. Her soap opera scenes with a soot-covered Gale really push the limits, saved if only by the undeniable grace and charisma of star Lawrence at every step along the way of this film. So it's sappy, but never too sappy.
In fact, Catching Fire is a masterpiece of pushing limits as far as they'll extend before the point of diminishing returns. Director Francis Lawrence maintains an ambiance that lends to emotional investment but never imposes too much realism as to drip into territories of grit. All of Catching Fire lives in a dreamlike state, a stark contrast to Hunger Games' guttural, grimacing quality that robbed it of the life force Suzanne Collins pumped into her first novel.
Once we get to the thunderdome, our engines are effectively revved for the "fun part." Katniss, Peeta, and their array of allies and enemies traverse a nightmare course that seems perfectly suited for a videogame spin-off. At this point, we've spent just enough time with the secondary characters to grow a bit fond of them — deliberately obnoxious Finnick, jarringly provocative Johanna, offbeat geeks Beedee and Wiress — but not quite enough to dissolve the mystery surrounding any of them or their true intentions (which become more and more enigmatic as the film progresses). We only need adhere to Katniss and Peeta once tossed in the pit of doom that is the 75th Hunger Games arena, but finding real characters in the other tributes makes for a far more fun round of extreme manhunt.
But Catching Fire doesn't vie for anything particularly grand. It entertains and engages, having fun with and anchoring weight to its characters and circumstances, but stays within the expected confines of what a Hunger Games movie can be. It's a good one, but without shooting for succinctly interesting or surprising work with Katniss and her relationships or taking a stab at anything but the obvious in terms of sending up the militant tyrannical autocracy, it never even closes in on the possibility of being a great one.
3.5/5
